Thank you for sharing. A very dignified interview. I usually vote labour but I'd find it impossible to do so now. Their lack of support for their own MP in the face of abuse and threats hardly fosters confidence that they are a party to stand up for anyone.

The vast majority of my colleagues are afraid to even raise it as a subject that we should be talking about....
Anything that ramps up the hate is terrifying. I’ll probably be killed at some point.

The comments are good, too.

And interesting to see Angela Rayner's contribution. I have a special kind of scorn for women who see another woman being piled on on social media with the most hateful kind of misogynistic abuse, and rather than speak up or even just stay quiet, decide they'll stick the boot in a bit more, in righteous language obviously.

Brave, brave woman.

i was on a labour thread on twitter and was astonished to see so many posts saying 'when are you going to do something about transphobia and rosie duffield' etc etc
